Little stream (小溪) ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed.
“Maybe I can’t reach the ocean.” she said sadly to herself.
At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze (微风) can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”
“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate (蒸发) into the breeze, and it can take you across.” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor (水蒸气) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.

It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen time may be harmful (有害的) to your health.
First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a smartphone.
Second, screen use can do harm to children’s brains. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect (影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. So it is wise to cut down the time of children using all kinds of screens.
Third, using screens too much will affect your sleep. According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people under 20. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So you’d better turn off smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.
To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly advise that you shouldn’t use screens for long hours.
11. What can not the blue light from your screens cause?
A. Eyestrain. B. Headaches. C. Dry eyes. D. Clear eyes.
12. According to the text, what is the reason for you not to sleep well?
A. Taking a break every 15 minutes. B. Having lower levels of white matter.
C. Using screens too much before bed. D. Being the people from 13 to 64.
13. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A. Using smartphones too long does harm to your eyes.
B. A lot of screen time affects children’s brain growth.
C. The light from electronics at night makes you excited.
D. People of all ages mustn’t use electronics at any time.
14. What do “those electronics” not include?
A. Tapes. B. Smartphones. C. Computers. D. TVs.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The ways to keep healthy. B. The harm of using screens too much.
C. The ways to use screens. D. The advantages of using screens.
【答案】11. D 12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述长时间面对电子产品的屏幕对健康的危害,最后呼吁人们不要长时间使用电子产品。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes.”可知,屏幕的蓝光可能会造成眼疲劳、头疼以及干眼。故选D。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中“...make you excited before you go to bed.”和“Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep.”可知,睡前面对屏幕太长时间会影响睡眠。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据“To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly advise that you shouldn’t use screens for long hours.”可知医生和研究人员强烈建议你不要长时间使用屏幕,文中并没有提到所有年龄段的人禁止使用电子产品。故选D。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Doctors say that the light from those electronics…So you’d better turn off smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.”可知,文中提到的电子产品是带有屏幕的设备,包括智能手机、电脑和电视,磁带没有屏幕。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“Too much screen time may be harmful (有害的) to your health.”可知文章开门见山,提出主题,紧接着指出大量的“屏幕时间”对健康造成的三个危害,所以选项B“过度使用屏幕的危害”符合文章主旨。故选B。
D
If you have never been to China Braille (盲文) Library(CBL), you cannot imagine what it is like.
It is open to the 17 million blind people in China. The borrowers can make phone calls, or send WeChat messages or emails (电子邮件) to the library, asking for the books they are looking for. The library then finds out these books, puts them into the mailing bag, fills in the address (地址) of the borrower on the other side of the card and waits for a postman to pick up the bag. Whenever the borrower finishes reading, he or she needs to put the books back into the bag, turn the address card around and put it into a postbox so that the books can be returned to the library. It is quite convenient (方便的) for blind people to borrow and return books.
On the third floor there are several big reading rooms with large windows. On the fifth floor, there is a museum. At the door, one can borrow earphones (耳机) to listen to recorded voices of guides who will take the listener all the way, from the historical wonders of ancient China to the history of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and ancient technological achievements.
CBL also has a 20-square-meter room called “Try Darkness”. Here all the lights are turned off and the door is fully closed not to let in any light so there is nothing but darkness in this room.

where哪里;if是否;unless除非;when当……时。根据下文“Surprisingly, John took the shirt...hesitation”可知,父亲是在问男孩是否能以200美元的价格把旧衬衫卖出去,应用if引导宾语从句。故选B。
【42题详解】
句意:令人惊讶的是,男孩毫不犹豫地拿起了衬衫。
without没有;by通过;for为了;on在……上。without hesitation表示“毫不犹豫地”,故选A。

across横跨;through通过;around围绕;opposite在……对面。根据后面关键词“the crowd”可知,是从人群中穿过,用through,故选B。

happy高兴的;sad伤心的;worried担心的;angry生气的。根据上文“a businessman bought the shirt at $1200”可知,男孩把旧衬衫卖了1200美元,爸爸应该是高兴的,故选A。
【45题详解】
句意:我们的价值取决于我们给它增加了多少附加值。
how often多久一次;how long多久;how far多远;how much多少钱。根据文章内容可知,男孩从刚开始把价值1美元的旧T恤卖到了2美元价格,再卖到了25美元,到最后卖到1200美元,因此每样东西的价值不是取决于它本身值多少钱,而是取决于我们所给它的附加值,故选D。

Little stream (小溪) ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed.
“Maybe I can’t reach the ocean.” she said sadly to herself.
At this time a deep voice said, “If a breeze (微风) can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”
“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate (蒸发) into the breeze, and it can take you across.” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor (水蒸气) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.
The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.
6. Where did the little stream want to reach?
A. The forest. B. The ocean. C. The desert. D. The village.
7. What is paragraph 1 mainly about the little stream before getting to the desert?

8. Why didn’t the little stream accept the desert’s advice at first?
A. She wouldn’t give up what she was. B. She failed many times.
C. She was afraid of the breeze. D. She wasn’t able to fly.
9. How did the little stream finally cross the dessert?

C. By disappearing into the sand. D. By changing her nature.

C. Little stream and the desert. D. Change means success.

It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen time may be harmful (有害的) to your health.
First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a smartphone.
Second, screen use can do harm to children’s brains. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect (影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. So it is wise to cut down the time of children using all kinds of screens.
Third, using screens too much will affect your sleep. According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people under 20. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So you’d better turn off smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.
To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly advise that you shouldn’t use screens for long hours.
11. What can not the blue light from your screens cause?
A. Eyestrain. B. Headaches. C. Dry eyes. D. Clear eyes.
12. According to the text, what is the reason for you not to sleep well?
A. Taking a break every 15 minutes. B. Having lower levels of white matter.
C. Using screens too much before bed. D. Being the people from 13 to 64.
13. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A. Using smartphones too long does harm to your eyes.
B. A lot of screen time affects children’s brain growth.
C. The light from electronics at night makes you excited.
D. People of all ages mustn’t use electronics at any time.
14. What do “those electronics” not include?
A. Tapes. B. Smartphones. C. Computers. D. TVs.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The ways to keep healthy. B. The harm of using screens too much.
C. The ways to use screens. D. The advantages of using screens.
D
If you have never been to China Braille (盲文) Library(CBL), you cannot imagine what it is like.
It is open to the 17 million blind people in China. The borrowers can make phone calls, or send WeChat messages or emails (电子邮件) to the library, asking for the books they are looking for. The library then finds out these books, puts them into the mailing bag, fills in the address (地址) of the borrower on the other side of the card and waits for a postman to pick up the bag. Whenever the borrower finishes reading, he or she needs to put the books back into the bag, turn the address card around and put it into a postbox so that the books can be returned to the library. It is quite convenient (方便的) for blind people to borrow and return books.
On the third floor, there are several big reading rooms with large windows. On the fifth floor, there is a museum. At the door, one can borrow earphones (耳机) to listen to recorded voices of guides who will take the listener all the way, from the historical wonders of ancient China to the history of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and ancient technological achievements.
CBL also has a 20-square-meter room called “Try Darkness”. Here all the lights are turned off and the door is fully closed not to let in any light so there is nothing but darkness in this room. It helps people understand how a blind person feels. Although it takes just about 10 minutes, it feels like an hour-long journey.
16. How many ways can the borrowers ask for the books from CBL?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
17. What does the borrower need to do when finishing reading?
①find out these books. ②put the card into a postbox.
③turn the address card around. ④put the books back into the bag.
⑤wait for a postman to pick up the bag. ⑥fill in the address of the borrower.
A. ①②③ B. ④③② C. ①⑤⑥ D. ③④⑤
18. Which is TRUE about the CBL museum?
A. It is on the third floor. B. It shows model planes.
C. It can lend earphones. D. There’s only one guide.
19. Why are the lights turned off in the “Try Darkness”?
A. To save time and money. B. To experience the blind’s feeling.
C. To make it enjoyable. D. To close the door not to let in any light.
20. What can we know from the last sentence “it feels like an hour-long journey”?
A. It’s easy to be in the “Try Darkness”. B. The journey in darkness is exciting.
